Great Firm, Amazing Solicitor (Dianne Collins)

I cant speak more highly of Dianne Collins and the team she has with her. They have all been professional, and exceeded my expectations in every aspect of my case, from the beginning to the end. I've not had much experience with solicitors but in my opinion Dianne is the best by far. She has been so compassionate and helpful consistently, I would recommend Dianne to anyone thinking of instructing a legal team to fight their corner. You will be amazed by Dianne and her teams expertise and the work they put in for you. I cant thank Dianne and her team enough. The result I got at the end of my case was an amazing feeling.

Dianne thank you.

Amazing service! Dianne Collins is an amazing and knowledgeable solicitor and a very good practitioner. Thank you so much for helping me to get closure on something I had kept with me for 20 years. A wonderful service was delivered over a two year period even through the Pandemic, I owe a great depth of gratitude as closure is something that has a value that can can not be quantified and measured. I would recommend this firm for ALL your legal needs. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. To the whole team. -Serita.

Dianne was in charge of my case of a delicate nature, it was a historic abuse claim which was always going to be difficult as the protagonist was deceased. The whole process was dealt with sympathetically yet totally professionally. Throughout it all I was never in doubt that Nelsons were on my side, they kept me informed over the lengthy discussions, never losing contact even when there was little to report. I am so grateful for the care and consideration that was shown to me by Dianne in particular and the firm in general.
